PROTECTIVE CARRIER FOR MICROCAVITY VESSELS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18571999 titled 'PROTECTIVE CARRIER FOR MICROCAVITY VESSELS

The protective carrier for a microcavity vessel is a rigid plate with a flange and ribs for added protection.

  • The protective carrier consists of a flat rigid plate with a flange extending from the top surface and ribs on the bottom surface.
  • It is designed to protect a microcavity vessel, such as a microcavity flask or bioreactor, which sits on a microcavity substrate.
  • The carrier system provides a secure and stable environment for the microcavity vessel to prevent damage or contamination.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be used in research laboratories, biotechnology companies, and pharmaceutical industries for cell culture and experimentation.
  • It can also be utilized in medical research for drug development and testing.

Problems Solved:

  • The protective carrier addresses the issue of protecting delicate microcavity vessels from external damage or contamination.
  • It provides a stable platform for conducting experiments and cultures in a controlled environment.

Benefits:

  • Ensures the safety and integrity of microcavity vessels during handling and transportation.
  • Facilitates precise and accurate experimentation by providing a secure base for the vessels.

Commercial Applications:

  • The protective carrier system can be marketed to research institutions, biotech companies, and pharmaceutical firms for use in various scientific applications.
  • It has the potential to enhance research efficiency and accuracy by providing a reliable protective solution for microcavity vessels.

Questions about the Protective Carrier for Microcavity Vessels: 1. How does the protective carrier system improve the safety of microcavity vessels during experimentation? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with using this technology in research laboratories?


Original Abstract Submitted

A protective carrier for a microcavity vessel is provided. The protective carrier comprises a substantially flat rigid plate comprising a top surface and a bottom surface. A flange disposed around at least a portion of a perimeter of the rigid plate, the flange extending from the top surface of the rigid plate. One or more ribs disposed on the bottom surface of the rigid plate. A protective microcavity vessel carrier system is provided that comprises a microcavity vessel comprising a microcavity substrate on a bottom surface; and a protective carrier. The microcavity vessel may be a microcavity flask, microcavity plate such as an open well reservoir plate, microcavity bioreactor, or a stacked 3D microcavity culture vessel.
